Abstract: 
We investigate the relationship between remittances inflow and economic growth in a sample of 65 emerging countries over the period 1988-2018 using the semi-parametric panel data model with fixed effects as proposed by Baltagi and Li (2002). Our empirical results show that the effect of remittances inflow on economic growth exhibits a highly nonlinear pattern, which sheds new light on the remittances-growth nexus and provides evidence of a nonlinear relationship.
